How to Cook : Ham Alfredo

Sometimes the best recipes evolve as a direct result of laziness. I was hungry for carbonara. But the thought of schlepping out to the garage, digging through one of my messy freezers for bacon, defrosting and cooking said bacon…it was more than I had the energy for on a Monday night after work.

I know, I know, cry me a river.

Matt suggested spaghetti and alfredo. That sounded like a better match for my energy level. Well, him cooking would have been the best match for my energy level, but alas he was busy stickering meat.

And as I stood there at the stove whisking the alfredo sauce, inspiration struck. There was leftover ham in the refrigerator! Ham…bacon…they’re both smokey, and salty, and come from pigs. I diced it up and threw it in the sauce.

That really looks delicious. I’d like to invite you to take some time to drop by at Foodista and share this delicious recipe with us.
